We love: The Café at SHOWstudio

This exhibition explores the distance travelled by modern coffee chains, with their buckets of coffee-flavoured warm milk, from their 19th-century roots in salon culture. With fashion, art and film contributions coming from Steven Meisel, Mother of Pearl and more, it's time to wake up and smell the Java. Until 5 November, www.showstudio.com

We're not sure: about Blingbacks

We ladies are just so darn crazy about shoes; it seems that any conceivable accessory or accoutrement has pound signs rolling in the eyes. Enter blingbacks, designed to jazz up a pair of heels while protecting your heels.

We're buying: Future classics

As the autumn rolls in, adding a tweed blazer to one's arsenal of outerwear is almost mandatory. This style from Future Classics is perfect for those who feel too Trunchbull-esque in something more traditionally structured. £895, www.futureclassicsfashion.com

We can't wait for: Goldsmiths' Fair

If you've ever wanted to commission a bespoke piece of jewellery, but not had a clue how to go about it, clear some space in your diary for a trip to Goldsmiths' Hall, where up-and-coming designers and makers will be selling their wares. From 26 September, www.thegoldsmiths.co.uk
